Anton Hilmer von Schaft (Japanese: アントン・ヒルマー・フォン・シャフト) was an Imperial admiral who served under Reinhard von Lohengramm.
He held doctoral degrees in engineering and philosophy and came to serve as the head of the Science and Technology Division around 792 UC (483 IC / 3592 CE) under the Goldenbaum Dynasty. He was allowed to retain his post after Reinhard von Lohengramm became prime minister although Reinhard frequently considered dismissing him.
Under the covert direction of Fezzan, he produced and implemented a plan to mobilize Geiersburg Fortress which led ultimately to the Eighth Battle of Iserlohn. (LOGH: 'Portraits')
He was subsequently arrested on charges of corruption, embezzlement of public funds, tax evasion, and betrayal of military secrets. The evidence for it was given to the Empire by Rupert Kesserling, on Adrian Rubinsky's orders, as Schaft was no longer useful to them in the aftermath of the Imperial defeat at the Eighth Battle of Iserlohn. (LOGH: 'Determination and Ambition')
